“…And as an important gut-associated lymphoid tissue, RSR plays key roles in the development of an immune response or immune tolerance to the antigens and pathogens in the intestinal tract (Haasz et al, 1974). Recently, several genes have been discovered to be related to the genetic determination of susceptibility to NSDD in rabbit, including MyD88, TLR4, NOD2, NLRP3, NLRP12, TYK2, JAK1 and STAT3 (Zhang et al, 2011;Chen et al, 2013a;Liu et al, 2013;Yang et al, 2013b;Zhang et al, 2013;Fu et al, 2014Fu et al, , 2015. It is also proved that several miRNAs play an important role in the pathogenesis of experimental colitis and human IBD.…”
